Chainsaws and Lifelong Friendships Raffle Draw Date June 24th 8PM EDT.

[Semotony]

Draw Date will be May 27th (Tentative)

Maybe extend it a week to June 3rd or so?

My understanding is that the drawing wood be trouble over a holiday weekend. Another view that was presented was to achieve the total of donations sought originally since the direct value of prizes donated exceeds the money we wood like Jon1212 to receive. If the peeps who have not participated in this raffle on each of the sights Jon assisted persons, wood provide$10 I believe the goal wood be exceeded. But I have brain damage for 46 years soooooo?

I really think we ought to wait until the goal is reached. I'm for postponing it. We aren't even @ $10.00 donation to $30.00 in prizes. Love helping but! This much stuff should bring him 15K. IMO.

I think I'm in.
Waiting to see how it will show up in my bank account (fees?!).
If it looks OK/acceptable I'll repeat.

I left "Wilhelm on OPE" in the comment box.

Is it too late to donate a prize for this raffle?
I was thinking of donating a custom set/batch of solid carbide (aka. Tungsten Carbide; Widia ; VHM ; hard metal) drills if it is deemed worthy.
Edit: In Metric diameters of course (Europe)

I forgot that it's early AM in the US.
Almost 1PM here in Europe.

Prize list/spread sheet (Word & Excel, Microsoft Office & LibreOffice), I utilized the info of post number 2 of this thread.

After a bit of work and editing I got it on the list. Apparently I am bouncing off the 10 000 character limit again.

My thought, no more prizes, just cash. Let's get this goal met and prizes given away!!!

Sounds good too me. The pool is huge and of extreme high quality. Plenty of motivation to ring the bell.

You could have simplified it, I wouldn't have minded.

FYI, this raffle still has less prizes than the Adirondackstihl raffle had.
Just saying, I noticed it while making the spreadsheet.

We need a decision on whether we are going to extend 5/27 date or not. If we wait 2 weeks or so that's a couple of paydays to increase pool.

Yes Jeremy’s raffle had 65 prizes to our now 61. Never before though has there ever been a raffle with prizes if this value. I have lost track but some where around 24 complete running saws. Some brand new and many ported. The choice for those drawn will be difficult no question about that.
